BMW style 156 (16", 5x120 bolt pattern, 34mm offset) wheels with almost new Toyo Observe Garit KX tires. Wheels have no curb rash. A new set of these tires cost $750 at Les Schwab. They are in the same quality as Bridgestone Blizzak and Michelin X-Ice tires. They were just balanced at Les Schwab last week - not just a regular balance - they were Road Force Balanced. In case you are not familiar with this process, they move each tire on the wheel to the best position to negate the imperfections of both the wheel and the tire giving you the best possible balance. They charge extra for this service. The few weights required to balance are on the inside so your wheels look nice from the outside. The tires are 205/55R16 and are "H" rated which means for speeds up to 130 mph.

They should fit the following cars (E46 without sport package which has larger brake calipers). May fit other models as well. CHECK YOUR WHEEL SIZE, BOLT PATTERN & OFFSET.

This package new would cost over $2,000. Here's your chance to own a set of snow tires mounted on authentic BMW wheels that you can simply swap out with the seasons without paying for dismounting and remounting & balancing each season. This is the only way to go!

lowering price by $25 to $600. Imagine not having snow tires and having to fool with chains...if you can get them on your car. No worries with these babies. I did find a set of 17" wheels and put the same Toyo tires on them. Drove to Bend a week ago and Santiam Pass was a breeze. Tested the tires on plowed road with ice and snow left for me. They hold in curves very well and allow much better acceleration and braking compared to my all season tires I have on the original wheels in my garage.
